I highly recommend this company to anyone serious about learning Spanish. The service is very friendly and professional in every way. I took 10 weekly conversational Spanish classes on line with Carmen in order to gain more confidence after some years of not using Spanish.I was unsure of how well the online scenario would work but Carmen is a very intuitive teacher and expertly tailored the classes to my own personal interests and learning style. She always sent feedback and after class notes very promptly through dropbox and her suggestions for further learning were hugely useful. Best experience of learning Spanish I have ever had - Thankyou Lighthouse and especially Carmen!

I have enjoyed every minute of my lessons both in person and via zoom. From a low starting level I am now confident to communicate with anyone in Spanish. Lucia and her team are just “The Best”

I can personally attest to the quality of this place as lessons are creatively taught through an incredible variety of in lesson games. This, combined with an extensive repertoire of learning material, means lessons never became the "sit there and listen" nightmare you find with lesser quality tutors. The lessons are tailored to you and adapt to your needs and Lighthouse Spanish Academy enabled me to achieve my desired grade with a confidence I doubt I would have without them. While tutors are never a sure-fire way to guarantee a high grade, this place is as close as it gets with its professional and extremely well constructed lessons.

I've had weekly lessons for a year now with Lidia from Lighthouse. I'm a mature student (very mature at 59!) and I have had such a positive experience. Lidia is kind and patient and an excellent teacher. I really enjoy my lessons and look forward to them each week.

My husband and I have been having Spanish lessons with Lucia and then Lidia for a few months now and the progress we have made has been brilliant. Both teachers have put us at ease and made our lessons really varied and enjoyable and the difference it has made to our confidence and ability has been fantastic. Both Lucia and Lidia are patient and make the lessons fun and varied, with lots of different ways of learning, which suit both myself and my husband who have different learning styles. In recent weeks we have changed tutors to have classes with Lidia and she has taken the time to get to know us on a personal level which is helping us learn how to have conversations about things which are relevant to us. We were slightly daunted at the prospect of starting lessons during COVID but the Lighthouse Spanish team are well equipped for online learning and it hasn't been an issue at all. We would really recommend both Lucia and Lidia to anyone who is thinking about learning Spanish.
